would commenting out FH_DATE_PAST_20XX in 72_active.cf help until it's fixed?

Thanks
Frank

Agree, that should probably be [2-9][0-9].
Please open a bug for this, it should be fixed for 3.3.0

Following that URL you find out that the "bug" was fixed five months
ago. I'm using the Debian Lenny package and it doesn't contain that fix.

NOW the 'minor' issue I raised before has just become a MAJOR one.

I have already fixed my config, so let's skip *that* portion of the argument.... :)

I speak for the unguessable number of people who have installed a 'standard' 3.2.x install with their linux variant, and don't monitor closely, or watch this list. Some of them, we can hope, will have 'sa-update' running in their nightly cron job. But will that do any good if this 'patch' is not 'rushed' out as an sa-update for the current version?

You could release 3.3.0 today, but that would not benefit people who don't know about the upgrade and leave it at 3.2.x.....

And my pity to all those people who don't run sa-update..... :(
